Which of the following DNA sequences qualifies to be designated as a palindrome?Which of the following DNA sequences qualifies to be designated as a palindrome?

Options

  1. A5′5^{\prime}-GACCAG-3' in one strand
  2. B3′−3^{\prime}- GACCAG- 5′5^{\prime} in one strand
  3. C5'-GACGAG-3', 3'-CIGGIC-5'
  4. D5'-AGCGCT-3', 3'-TCGCGA-5'

Correct answer

D. 5'-AGCGCT-3', 3'-TCGCGA-5'

Step-by-step solution

Palindromic sequence is the sequence of nucleotides whose reading is same when read from both 5′→3′5^{\prime} \rightarrow 3^{\prime} and 3′→5′3^{\prime} \rightarrow 5^{\prime} direction. It is the mirror image of the sequence in its first half Which of the following DNA sequences qualifies to be designated as a palindrome?
